Were There Black US Presidents before? The people thought that Barack Obama is the first black President of the United States. Wrong.

1. John Hanson (a Moor) was actually the 1st President of the United States, he served from 1781 – 1782 and he was black. The new country was actually formed on March 1, 1781 with the adoption of The Articles of Confederation. This document was actually proposed on June 11, 1776, but not agreed upon by Congress until November 15, 1777. Maryland refused to sign this document until Virginia and New York ceded their western lands (Maryland was afraid that these states would gain too much power in the new government from such large amounts of land).

Once the signing took place in 1781, a President was needed to run the country. John Hanson was chosen unanimously by Congress (which included George Washington). In fact, all the other potential candidates refused to run against him, as he was a major player in the revolution and an extremely influential member of Congress.

As President, Hanson ordered all foreign troops off American soil, as well as removal of all foreign flags. He established the Great Seal of the United States, which all Presidents since have been required to use on all Official Documents. He declared that the 4th Thursday of every November to be Thanksgiving Day, which is still true today. Even though elected, one variable that was never thought through was that America was not going to accept a Black President during the heart of the enslavement period. Enter George Washington.

2. Thomas Jefferson was the 3rd President of the United States, he served from 1801 – 1809 and he was black. His mother a half-breed Indian squaw and his father a mulatto (half white and half black) from Virginia. He fathered numerous children with Sally Hemmings, a mulatto slave with whom he lived with in Europe.

3. Andrew Jackson was the 7th President of the United States. He served from 1829 – 1837 and he was black. His mother was a white woman from Ireland who had Andrew Jackson with a black man. His father’s other children (Andrew Jackson’s stepbrother) was sold into slavery.

4. Abraham Lincoln was the 16th President of the United States, he served from 1861 – 1865 and he was black. His mother was from an Ethiopian Tribe and his father was an African American. It was told that his father was Thomas Lincoln, a man to cover the truth, but he was sterile from childhood mumps and was later castrated, making it impossible for him to have been his father. Lincoln’s nickname “Abraham Africa-nus the First.”

5. Warren Harding was the 28th President of the United States, he served from 1921 – 1923 and he was black. Harding never denied his ancestry. When Republican leaders called on Harding to deny his “Negro” history, he said, “How should I know whether or not one of my ancestors might have jumped the fence?”

6. Calvin Coolidge was the 29th President of the United States, he served from 1923 – 1929 and he was black. He proudly admitted that his mother was dark but claimed it was because of a mixed Indian ancestry. His mother’s maiden name was “Moor.” In Europe the name “Moor” was given to all Black people just as in America the name “Negro” was used.

7. Dwight E. Eisenhower was the 33rd President of the United States, he served from 1953 – 1961 and he was black. His mother, Ida Elizabeth Stover Eisenhower, an anti-war advocate, was half black.

So, America has survived and thrived through our first Seven Black Presidents and we will survive and THRIVE through the election

It was one of 24 Jeffersons living in the area. You've got that going for you. My math says that's a 4% chance you're right. If you rely on circumstantial evidence beyond that (which you must), then the DNA evidence becomes nearly worthless.

I think a 4% chance of something being true suggests it's not. However, I will stipulate that the 4% odds do allow that he could be the father, but DNA testing hasn't proved that whatsoever. And no family court would even bother to dignify such results.

This isn't family court. It's not a criminal trial. And you're the one who initially said something was proved but now admit that it wasn't. Whether Jefferson was actually the father or not doesn't prevent cosmo from being right in this instance (post 17) and you being wrong (posts 13 & 19).

The reason you post this stuff is to make fun of the black man. That Guy or somebody will have to swing by and kick your honky ass for this. Shameful behavior on OPs part.

All you do is create negative post about minorities. You and the rest of the DC crowd hide behind your bullshit lies. You're a racist in my eyes and a piece of shit.

Because I'm black I'm violent and call white people honkeys? I'm sorry you're a racist piece of shit who enjoys creating threads that mock black people and black culture. DC is the place to be if you're a racist white male.

Technically speaking, Moors would be considered Caucasian if they are from the Middle East or North Africa. that's not how the US Census Bureau would define it, but they moved the goal posts a long time ago.
